Republican Study Committee Chairman August Pfluger (R-TX) criticized Texas Democrat U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico over undercover footage in which the candidate maintained his views on transgender issues had not changed, arguing that voters could not trust him and questioning his efforts to present himself as a moderate despite his longstanding positions on transgender policies and the oil and gas industry.
\n\nDuring an appearance on The Scott Jennings Show, Pfluger, who leads the largest Republican caucus in Congress, discussed the Texas Senate race between Talarico and Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton after Jennings played undercover footage obtained by the Daily Wire.
\n\n“The way I fought for trans kids in the legislature is how I will fight for the U.S. Senate, and my position hasn’t changed,” Talarico said in the recording.
\n\n“I still think these should be local decisions, sport by sport, athlete by athlete, and I think I have the most inclusive policy of any candidate who’s running,” he continued. “So I know things are getting clipped and stuff, but my views, my position hasn’t changed, and I’m going to have your loved ones back.”
\n\nJennings then asked Pfluger whether Texans could trust Talarico on transgender issues or other matters.
